Doggy Day Care in Cottage Grove, Youngstown, OH

“Our two dogs were very happy to spend the day with Kaitlyn. And we’ll be back again soon enough for a slightly longer stay. Strongly recommended.”

“To say Melissa is a pet lover is an understatement. She has a huge amount of compassion for animals, which is what makes her the perfect pet sitter. As a child she would actually sleep in her bedroom closet with her dogs anytime there was loud thunder or fireworks, just to help keep them calm. She has volunteered at a cat rescue facility, and has taken in abandoned cats until she was able to find them permanent homes. Melissa would be a wonderful pet sitter for your cat, guinea pigs, dragons, etc...”

“Bambi had a great stay for daycare with Haley!”

“Very catering and loving person. Absolutely loves pets. Alway puts her animals first a she would put her animals before herself. I highly recommend sienna”

“Carissa is a wonderful lady who has owned pets for the last 20 yrs ,,,,they have all been from rescue groups and she treats them like children , very loving !! She is currently fostering a little Boston Terrier for a rescue group ( " Speak for the Unspoken " ) out of Columbus, Ohio. He came from an Amish Puppy Mill and has thrived in her care. He is very loving and she has done a wonderful job w/taking care of him. He just loved her other dog, Gus , so they got along famously . He is getting adopted in a few weeks, the couple who met him fell in love with him instantly. This is the type of person Carissa is , helping those who need help and have no voice. If you would consider having her watch your furbabies, I can tell you without a doubt they will be thoroughly loved and cared for !!”

About: I have had two small dogs that were the light of my life! Currently, I have Tanna my rescue chihuahua. I watch my sister’s pit bull (Dawn), my brother’s large dog (Maggie) and my friend’s medium and small dog (Cooper with Tanna). I have worked with young children for 16 years as an elementary school counselor, I am great with positive reinforcement. It is my passion to help children and animals thrive and feels safe! I love to go on walks and play with dogs! I would be honored to provide care, cuddles and fun with your dog! If you book me for house sitting, I wanted to let you know that I am allergic to down/feathers. I can bring my own bed linens to accommodate this allergy. I am currently retired and volunteer at The Butler Institute of American Art one day a week for 3 hours. This leaves me open to provide your pet with all the love, time and attention they need. I would never let any harm come to an animal! I have a large back yard, live close to several parks, for walkies and I have tons of energy to give towards the happiness of your pet. I feel like pets are family.

“Highly recommend! My pup never had a sitter before and she felt very comfortable with her! Got into her car and everything, Alexis also sent me numerous texts with pictures to ease my mind.”

“McKenzie is a dog mom of 1 to a golden named Rover. Safe to say that McKenzie is the best dog mom and loves all dogs unconditionally. She is the person you want taking care/walking your dog when you have a long day at work.”

“Shannon is compassionate, caring, organized, and resourceful. I would recommend her to anyone as a pet caregiver just on her lifetime of experience of growing up with and caring for her own pets. Then you add her years of professional experience in attention to detail costumer service, from babysitting to event coordinating.”

About: I've worked in pet insurance for 4 years and have multiple points of contact if any concerns arise with a pet. I can administer insulin and give medication and follow a strict schedule. I work from home and my schedule is very flexible therefore I can attend to your pets needs right away if they need something. My available days will alternate every other week but we can schedule something. I am in a pet friendly apartment building if I would bring your pet to my residence as long as the larger animals can handle stairs. I can perform any function in the owner's home that is needed by me for the pet with no wait time of the pet's needs.

“Although Avi recently took care of our dog and cat while we were gone for a week, he’s been our pet sitter for a while (which included a feisty gecko!) When we came home, both animals were so happy to see us but also sad to see Avi go. In the amount of time my husband and I witnessed him interacting with our beloved pets, he was very sweet and warm toward them. Even when our dog was initially barking protectively, Avi took his time, went slow, and gave positive reinforcement the whole time to gain trust. We love that we know we can count on Avi to keep their routines and keep them happy and cared for when we go away for any length of time!”

“Katie loves animals. I believe she would make a great dog walker. Actually she would be great with all animals in need of love and care.”

About: Hi, I’m a mother of 3 children and I’m great at taking care of pets and people! Will take care and love them like my own. Im currently a stay at home mom, so I love helping others by playing, walking, or hanging out with their dog. I bring my son to preschool Tuesday and Thursday but at home most of the time. I have a acre lot but no fence. 20 ft long leash to let them out to play. I have a two year old pup to let them play with and children who love to play too.

About: The well being and happiness of dogs is my goal. I understand the challenge of finding trustworthy people to provide the same care you would for your dog when you need it most. When I first started rover years ago, I met an owner and her two dogs who I frequently took care of for years until she sadly moved out of state. Because my time was occupied with her dogs, I couldn’t offer my time to others through this site which is why my profile has been inactive for some time. . I’ve worked at two different dog shelters, a boarding facility, and I volunteer for a local dog shelter. Im working on getting my dog training certification also. I’ve been successful in understanding dog behavior in different environments, and I especially love working with dogs who struggle with behavioral issues. I currently have a 14 year old dog who’s my best friend, my whole world. I adopted him when he was roughly 3 months old. I never board him, I’m super paranoid and picky if anyone watches him for me. So I get it if you feel the same! I do work full time currently, but I don’t have many obligations outside of work. I prefer to stay active as often as possible, and will make sure your dog gets the exercise it needs! My weekends are usually open, and I’m available during the week after 5pm. Every dog is different, I will accommodate their needs in any way I can. From high energy puppies to calm seniors and everything in between, their comfort is most important. I prefer to keep the dogs daily routine in check, and minimize any stress for them.

“As a family member of Nadia, I am honored to write a Rover testimonial about her. I have known Nadia for 19 years and have seen her grow and mature into a responsible, loving, intelligent, trustworthy, hardworking, business-minded young adult. Nadia is a natural entrepreneur and takes pride in every entrepreneurial venture she undertakes. She will be an excellent Rover pet caretaker and dog walker because she has an open heart and unbiasedly loves people and animals. She is an excellent caretaker, who takes care of others pets as if they were her own – with love/care, kindness and attention to detail.”

“Mia is a perfect choice for a dog sitter. She is a very responsible and trustworthy young lady, and will give your pet the love, care and attention that she gives her very own dog. She has cared for my dog, and I would recommend her as a dog sitter, without hesitation , to any dog owner.”

“Arnie loved spending the day with Nicole and Kahlua. He seemed sad to leave when we picked him up! Thank you so much for enriching Arnie’s day!”

“Jessica has a heart for dogs. Dogs have a heart for Jessica. Dogs trust her and respond to Jessica . Never late. Responsible. Respectful. Kind”
